Even experienced gardeners are surprised: a simple remedy revives cucumbers for a new harvest

“If only two or three cucumbers have grown on a bush, this problem can be solved using a simple remedy.

 

Many gardeners have to deal with a low cucumber harvest. At the end of the season, the yield decreases, especially when the night temperature drops. Cucumbers become sluggish, turn yellow, bitter, and voids appear inside them. In addition, the plants become resistant to late blight and chlorosis. This problem can be solved with the help of simple baking soda. What is the benefit of soda for cucumbers? Soda can help increase the yield and extend the fruiting period until September or even October.

 

Advantages of soda: promotes abundant fruiting even on weak bushes; increases overall yield; protects against yellowing, late blight and chlorosis; rejuvenates cucumber stems and bushes; cucumbers grow smooth, without voids and bitterness; plants renew and bear fruit as at the beginning of the season. It is important to prepare the fertilizer correctly - incorrect proportions can harm the plants.

 

How to prepare the fertilizer?

 

Use a plastic or glass container. Enameled or aluminum containers are not suitable. Ingredients: 500 ml of warm (not hot) water; 1 teaspoon of soda (with a heap); 1 teaspoon of dry yeast; 1 drop of iodine. Preparation: Pour warm water. Add soda, stir and leave for 30 minutes. Add yeast, stir well. Add iodine and stir again. Dilute the resulting concentrate with 5 liters of settled water.

 

How to use?

 

Cucumbers are watered at a rate of about 1 liter of solution per bush.

 

If the leaves turn yellow, the plants themselves can be sprayed with the solution. After such fertilization, the cucumbers renew themselves and begin to bear fruit abundantly again.”
